Errors in Chest Radiography

Inhaltsangabe

Why are mistakes made in chest radiography? Many errors are caused simply by wrong technique or faulty interpretation. How can a specialist avoid making such mistakes? By recognizing the reasons for past mistakes. Dr. Viamonte has collected many such cases, particularly of bronchial cancer, during thirty years of experience. The author distinguishes between errors of omission, which occur most often, errors of commission, and errors caused by a lack of relevant clinical history. He presents the original radiograph and challenges the reader to recognize the abnormality correctly. Every practicing radiologist can learn from the cases and pitfalls presented in this book.
